Led by acclaimed violinist Jeremy Kittel (formerly of the Grammy-winning Turtle Island Quartet), Grammy-nominated Kittel & Co. inhabits the space between classical & acoustic roots, Celtic & bluegrass aesthetics and folk & jazz sensibilities. Some of the greatest musicians in the incredible acoustic scene, the members of the trio have collaborated with Béla Fleck, Sarah Jarosz, Chris Thile and Yo-Yo Ma. Together, Jeremy Kittel, mandolin phenom Josh Pinkham and transcendent guitarist Quinn Bachand coalesce into a singular voice that’s thrilled audiences from the Telluride Bluegrass Festival to A Prairie Home Companion. Grammy-nominated Kittel & Co. Get your toes tapping and hit the dance floor on this fun Festival kick off!
“[Kittel & Co.] takes the string band tradition to marvelously rarefied levels of collective virtuosity…. thrillingly spontaneous”
